Bridgestone Spitfire S11 Sport Touring Front Tire - Reviews

I bought one of these tires for the front of my VTX. After approximately 2000 miles the sidewall is beginning to split near the bead and is also dry rotting badly. Have sent in my complaint to customer service just waiting on a reply right now. I am very picky of tire pressures so that can be ruled out. Also even though it has been balanced fork oil replaced the tire is starting to cup out.
